A patient of myxedema coma with marked hypercapnia
Source Identifiers
A 65-year-old woman myxedema coma is presented. This uncommon disorder should be taken a part in the differential diagnosis of unconsciousness, as myxedema coma often associated with serious hypercapnia may have a poor prognosis. Prompt normalization of serum thyroid hormone level would be the essential in the treatment for this disease.
